r0p0doe Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 It's been done kinda from what I can remember but not fully executed. Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 You can find maybe 20 threads on Ratsun asking this same question with all of them pointing to about the same 5 cars. Quote Link to comment
jimmy billy Posted September 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Why the hell can i never find anything on the search engine?!?! I try to word things simple and strait to the point and i still get nothing. Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Use google to search. Include "ratsun" as part of your criteria. Or... Quote Link to comment

I try to word things simple and strait to the point and i still get nothing. I used to find the search function option useless as well but it takes some getting used to, it really does work lol Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 I don't get the issues with the search function it works for me all the time. You can use it to search the domain through google, directly search the forum, specific forums and even threads. :confused: Quote Link to comment
67_1600 Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 I don't get the issues with the search function it works for me all the time. You can use it to search the domain through google, directly search the forum, specific forums and even threads. :confused: Do a regular (Google, using the search control on every page) for 'idx' and note that it returns 72 results. Do the same search from the advanced search page and you get no results. Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 You need to use an * for 3 character searches under the forums. Google search on idx through the forum search 3 character search on forums idx 510 with no * would work as well. :) Quote Link to comment
67_1600 Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Odd that you have to use a wildcard in one place but not the other. Different search engines I know, but still... In any event, it does explain, at least in part, some of the 'I tried searching and couldn't find anything' type threads. Perhaps another hint would be helpful when someone is on the advanced search page. Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Will see if Thomas can add instructions about the wildcard. I'm so used to adding * to short searches I didn't think about it. I also haven't used the advanced search tab either :confused: Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 It used to be worse than useless, but is, (I think) getting even better with age. It has about 7 years of ratsun stuff to sift through. I also started modifying post titles to help it. Simply typing HELP as a title does everyone a disservice. HELP means everyone has to open the post only to find out it's a question on Roadsters or a 2002 Sentra. Or just something truly stupid. A sensible title allows the search function to do it's job and find and display the question on the Roadster and Sentra to someone who really needs it. Quote Link to comment
INDY510 Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 2eDeYe" post="1144853" timestamp="1411143112"] The best way to search on Ratsun: is to go to General Discussion, or the 510 section, or Events, etc. ... then use the search box (in the upper right) once you're in the sub forum you want to look in. .... then click the search in: "This Forum" box, instead of "Google" ..... you will get much better search results 1 Quote Link to comment
